The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

Chapter 144 Invitation to the Peach Blossom Garden

Jun Mochen quickly changed the subject, saying, "Oh, by the way, isn't Li Muxia currently preparing for the restaurant's affairs? She invited me to be the hotel's spokesperson."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jincheng asked with some confusion, "What spokesperson?"

Jun Mochen repeated the information about the spokesperson that Li Mucha had told him, and finally said proudly, "From now on, I'll be a platinum member of Cyclamen."

To be honest, Dongfang Jincheng was a little envious of Jun Mochen, and also a little jealous. When the person he liked needed help, the first person he thought of wasn't him.

As for Li Muxia, she was somewhat surprised when she received the invitation from Dongfang Jincheng. She didn't seem to know this Prince Rui very well, so she wondered what the meaning of this sudden invitation was.

Unable to figure it out, she decided to go and ask Li Anjin.

Li Anjin looked at Li Muxia and was also somewhat confused about Prince Rui's intentions. In the end, the two of them brought Li Anran to the old general's courtyard. The old general naturally already knew about Dongfang Jincheng's invitation to them, but he was also a little confused about Dongfang Jincheng's thoughts.

However, he still analyzed Prince Rui's situation in the court for the group of people.

Logically speaking, Prince Rui had never been very interested in the throne. However, the Emperor had always favored Prince Rui and had repeatedly considered making him the Crown Prince. However, due to the unclear situation in the court, the Emperor had not made his intention to make Prince Rui the Crown Prince too obvious. Apart from a few old ministers of the royalist party, the other princes and officials were unaware of this.

The old general said, "Judging from Prince Rui's character, he shouldn't be forming cliques. He came to the manor a few days ago, but he didn't reveal any information. This time, he only invited the three of you, so it's probably not to win over the General's Mansion."

Li Anjin suddenly thought of something and said, "Grandpa, is it because Prince Rui found out about Mu Xia's identity as the Immortal Physician, so he actually wants to befriend the Immortal Physician or Jishi Manor this time?"

Upon hearing Li Anjin's words, everyone realized that this made sense. They had heard that Prince Rui had been looking for a doctor recently; could this be the reason?

The old general said, "That's not impossible. Whatever the truth is, since Prince Rui has invited you, you can go without worry. Given Prince Rui's character, he won't do anything to harm you. Just remember not to do anything impolite."

He glanced at Li Anjin and said, "Anjin, remember one thing: our General's Mansion will always be loyal to the Emperor and the court. Never get involved in the struggle for the princes' positions."

Upon hearing this, Li Anjin nodded solemnly and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, Anjin knows what to do."

Each of them returned to their own courtyards to rest, each with their own thoughts. Li Muxia didn't think too much about it. Actually, she didn't want to accept the invitation, but thinking about how her restaurant was about to open, if she could also bring Prince Rui into her team as a spokesperson, it would be hard for her restaurant not to be a hit. Three of the four most handsome men in the capital would be spokespeople for her restaurant. Just thinking about it made her happy.

With this in mind, Li Muxia decided that she must cultivate a good relationship with Prince Rui tomorrow.

The meeting place for Dongfang Jincheng was a manor in the east of the city. This manor was his private property, and very few people knew this; most people assumed it belonged to a wealthy merchant.

The manor boasts a large peach orchard, covering approximately twenty to thirty acres, hence the manor's name, Peach Blossom Garden. Every March, this orchard bursts into bloom, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene. Each year, numerous people flock here to witness this magnificent spectacle of ten miles of peach blossoms.

Dongfang Jincheng is not a stingy person; every March, he opens the gates of the manor to welcome people from all walks of life to come and visit.

However, it's already June, the peach blossoms have long since faded, and the peaches are ripe. But the environment here is wonderful, nestled against the mountains and beside the water, with the fragrance of peaches filling the air. In addition, the well-maintained gardens look no less impressive than those of the imperial gardens. Being in such an environment is truly refreshing.

When the three arrived at the place invited by Prince Rui, they were all a little stunned. What was going on with this sea of ​​flowers?

Li Muxia looked around and saw roses, honeysuckle, roses, wisteria, peonies... and many other flowers she couldn't name, dozens of varieties in total. It seemed like they had brought over all the kinds of flowers that bloom this season.

Wasn't Prince Rui supposed to be a person who preferred simplicity and tranquility?

This scene of abundant flowers is hardly elegant at all.

In contrast, Li Muxia and Li Anjin looked disgusted, while Li Anran looked excited, looking around and sniffing at flowers, occasionally pointing at one and exclaiming in amazement.

Li Muxia thought to herself: As expected, little girls like these things.

Wait a minute, little girls like these things, this feels kind of familiar.

Could someone be proposing to me today?

Could it be that I've somehow stumbled upon the place where Feng Yuhan confessed his feelings to the girl he likes?

This scene looks exactly like the one she described to Feng Yuhan before.

Sure enough, led by the servant, they arrived at a waterside pavilion. Li Muxia kept observing the surrounding environment and sure enough, in a corner not far from the pavilion, she saw clusters of neatly arranged flowers. Although she only saw a corner, Li Muxia could already picture the shape of the flowers in the arrangement in her mind. It was definitely a heart shape.

Staring speechlessly at the sky, what a coincidence! Should I sneak a peek later?

The three arrived at the waterside pavilion and saw Jun Mochen and Dongfang Jincheng drinking tea.

The two stood up and came to the three of them, and Li Muxia and the others quickly bowed.

"This humble woman, Li Muxia, greets Your Highness Prince Rui and Lord Jun."

"This humble woman, Li Anran, greets Your Highness Prince Rui and Lord Jun."

"Li Anjin greets His Highness Prince Rui and Lord Jun in a low voice."

Dongfang Jincheng looked at the three of them and said, "No need for formalities. I have invited you to the garden today, so please don't be too reserved."

When Li Muxia looked up, Jun Mochen and Dongfang Jincheng could finally see her face clearly.

Dongfang Jincheng: I haven't seen her for a few days, and she's lost even more weight.

Jun Mochen: I never expected her to be so beautiful in women's clothing. Even Wei Shuyue, who was voted the number one beauty in Kyoto, would pale in comparison to her.

After the three were invited to sit down at the table, and the servant poured a cup of tea for each of them, an eerie silence fell over the room.

To be honest, it's really awkward, since we're not familiar with each other and I don't know what to say.
